Chief Minister Hemant Soren today attended the closing ceremony of the first state level women police conference 2024 organized at Shaurya Auditorium, JAP-1, Doranda as the chief guest. On the occasion, the CM said that for the first time a state level women police conference has been organized. This event has aroused enthusiasm, excitement and hope among the women police personnel. It is our joint responsibility to ensure that the positive impact of the topics discussed in this two-day state level women police conference is seen on the women policing system in the coming days.
The CM said that on the occasion of this conference, the necessary suggestions related to the rights of women police, reasonable demands, resolution of problems etc., which have reached the state government, will be properly considered.
Soren said that the state government will soon make rules so that women police officers can also become station in-charge in the police stations established within the state. Certainly, there is a need to make such a system in which women police take responsibility as senior officers in the police stations. He said that in the coming time, a calendar should also be made for organizing a state level male police conference. He said that the senior officers of the police department should reach the root of the policing system and work to strengthen it. He said that the policemen of our state are capable, yet the investigation of some cases is handed over to Income Tax, ED, CBI etc. Why is this so? These subjects need to be taken seriously.
The CM said that a better action plan should be made on what needs to be done for the betterment of the women police force of the state. The state government needs to formulate policies on some subjects, while some things are at the police department level. The police department also needs to move forward in the interest of women police.
The CM said that the role of women police is important in the executive and society. The responsibility of women police personnel working in the state increases on many sensitive matters. He said that we have to create such a policing system in which the general public of the state has confidence in the police. He said that our police should do such work among the common people whose result is always just.
Soren said that you should take the policing system of the state forward in such a way that while the number of women police in the state police force is 5 to 6 per cent today, in the coming time this number should reach 50 per cent, for this whatever support you need from the state government, our government will provide it.
Soren said that improving the social system is a matter of your skill and better working style. He said that there are a large number of women's groups at many places like women's colleges, nursing colleges, hostels of women's educational institutions etc. There should be direct coordination of women police officers at these places so that the problems related to women can be known and understood. He said that the state government always tries that no one can point a finger at our police system or there is less scope for negative comments. Soren said that changes can be brought in conservative mindset and system by introducing a better working style within the society.
On this occasion, CM Soren and other dignitaries released a special souvenir.
On this occasion, State Development Commissioner Avinash Kumar, DGP Anurag Gupta, Additional Director General of Police Suman Gupta along with other senior police officers and a large number of women police officers were present.
